His fervour brought him into conflict with the Restoration government and he spent much time in prison. It was there he wrote his famous masterpiece, "The Pilgrim's Progress". By the time of his death he had written some 60 works. This biography takes Bunyan seriously as a spiritual guide, and sets his life in the context of the history of English Christianity, as well as the political conflicts of his time.
